Testimonials

  • Hi Nikki, just wanted to send a quick note of thanks! I took your 2-hour Childbirth & Pushing Without Fear workshop and it helped so much! I delivered my 4th child and your workshop helped me feel so much more in control of my labour. My husband also watched it with me and was able to learn about the double hip squeeze and it made him much more confident on how he could help me through each contraction! Even though it was my 4th delivery, I learned so much and we both wish we had watched it before we had our first! Thanks again” – Lisa E
  • The Childbirth & Pushing Without Fear workshop was amazing for preparing my husband to be my support person, and he was my hero! At one point he leaned in and said “this might be harder than holding an ice cube” which made me laugh and relax – the nurses were so impressed with our team work! – Jen S.

Lorri Fleming

When I think back to my favourite birth moment, it was probably the first birth I ever attended almost 20 years ago. I shed tears of joy when that baby arrived earth-side. I was simply overjoyed for the new family but most importantly, I knew that I had just found my calling!

To me, it is important to laugh between contractions, and to be reminded that the birth sensation will go away. Moms need me to tell them that yes, birth can be tough but you are TOUGHER! I know what it means to be brave because I have had to be, through the births of my own children, running a marathon and especially when my husband was ill. These situations have taught me to dig deep, I realized how brave and strong I can be and realize what a blessing these challenges have turned out to be.

On my way to every birth, even twenty years later, I say a prayer to say how grateful I am to be a Childbirth Professional and be able to support families as they celebrate their baby’s arrival. I ask God to use me in the way that is most helpful and pray that the birth be a positive experience for the whole family and birthing team. I became a Doula because it fulfills every one of my core values and that to me is the definition of true JOY! Do what you LOVE and LOVE what you do!
